THE SIIN. SOLXJI QUIS nrcEnE PALSUM 4UDE4T, LONI)ON IVI.:DNESDAI r ARCH 15, MM. To such of the. Public Journals as have ex. pressed opinions. us to the fallacy of the state. rnents of the CuAxect.r.on of the Excaneeen in the House of Commons ofMonday, we think that Right Honourable Gen tlenom infinitely obliged, inasmuch as they have done their best to repress the sanguine expectations of the country as to the likely produCe of the Revenue, and us to the mighty deal of good the finance measures of the Administration have and will do ; and so far have done, their possible to prevent dis:. appointment. Anticipation l of good is n far more pleasant' telleilon than forebodings of Oil, and having once expressed our opinion on this 'momentous point, we are not disposed, to inter rupt the good humour of the nation, or:break into any harmony the CH A NCELLOR'S Budget may re-establish between Alinisters and the Nation, There is, however, one point connected with Ids s ubject , h • wou ld on w we say a few words, and that is, the issue of Exchequer Bills. These 'Mils are issued in anticipation of the Revenue., and if the Revenue should happen to equal in amount, the amount of Exchequer Bills thus issued, why then well and good ; bUtlf, lm the contrary, the Revenue should full off, then indeed Mr. ROBINSON may exclaim, "Oh what a fall was there, my countrymen," because in con sequence of these defalcations is it, that our unfunded floating debt is created, and thence the necessity of pitying it .off in :a new way, by adding it to the perinanent debt of the country. All private Gentlemen, who li ve anticipating their incomes, are said .to be outrunning the constable ; and the 'only difference between private gentlemen and the nation in this respect is, t h at Whilst the one outruns the, constable, the other only outruns reason, both however , tend to vitahle destruction, and the sooner this race between the constable and reason against the private gentleman and the nation is done With, the better fur all parties. The only way to do this, is to cease to anticipate, and that can only be e ons by ceasing to issue Rxchequer Bills. We do not, however, imagine that so inveterate a habit can be readily , got rid r, but. still we think something may be done ivard4 it, by limiting the issue, in the `Fitt place a sum not exceeding two. ortii of the likely produce of the quar ters reven u e ' It i 3 hardly possible to count upon a real substantial surplus of income while these anticipations are permitted, and prac tice sufficiently points out the truth of this ob servation, in the .simple fact, that the. whole amount of the Sinking Fund, -sitice' it was arranged by Mr. Roamsox himself,' is scarcely equal to the amount of Exchequer Bills now proposed to be funded: The ease with which money is obtained by these means, superinduces expenditure, and every check,every obstacle ought to be thrown in the -way of the lavish. disposition of the public money. If money was not to be had until the taxes had been actually received, we think the Minister would find a way to make his means and expences more nearly balance, or to have a real surplus with which to make a beginning towards reducing that immense mountain of debt, which is the Alpha and Omega of all our troubles and distresses. We regret to find that the markets for colo• tan' produce, so far from improving, are less fa vourable than they were last week. Coffee has declined is., and Indigo is unsaleable. Sugnr is in some request, but with no eppafent prospect of any improvement in price. The German Papers received this day contain no political intelligence, and seem confined en tirely to the recital of crimes committed in Rome and elsewhere. The health of the POPE, by these Papers, would appear to be completely re established, as he attended mass in the Sextino Chapel, and performed the very fatiguing cere mony of di4tributing the ashes. An estimate given in these papers of the number of robbers in Ger many places it at 16,000, of whom 12,000 are Jews. The following are extracts : RoME, FEB. 12. His Hennes' rode out for the first, time on llonday, when he weather was very fine. He paid a visit to the Dowager Queen of Sardinia, who liven in the Papal Palace on the Monte Cavallo, and on his return stopped at the Jesuits' Cluirch.—. The manner in which these visits were paid has excited atten. den : the Jesuits are highly flattered, and the Queen may perhaps be induced by this and the many other marks of atten tien paid her, to prolong her visit to Rome, or even to fix her abode there entirely. On Ash-Wedneeday his Holiness not only attended mass in the Sixtino Chapel, buttven performed the certi monyoftlistzibutingtheasibea, and in this fatiguing function, for several hundred persons received the ashes, chewed a degreeof bodily strength which astonished all those who were witnesses of it. Among the persons who appeared to receive them; many English were observed, which was likewise the case in the dis. tribution of the tapers on the day of the Purification of the Virgin : the Popes, it is well known, distribute them to any person dressed in black who approaches the throne, without any inquiry into the religion of the individual. The well known Kaschiour has lately again become a subject of conversation, but is a very unexpected manner. Our' readers will I per laps remember that this man—a pupil of the Propaganda; by birth a Copt, and, as far as it said, the son of a favourite of the Viceroy of Egypt, was; expressly asked for by the latter, as Patriarch of Memphis, and in consequence, thea'eh much Es below the age required, was sent .by our Government, in this capacity, to Egypt at a great expence ; but on his arrival there, to the astonishment of everybody, be was not only not received, but sent back in a disgraceful manner, without being ever per. mitted Cu land.. Various conflicting reports were spread at the time respecting this event. Some affirmed that Kaschiour's father had:died in the interval, and that the new favourite of the Viceroy had, out of jealousy, put away the son of his predeces. 1 sor, without his Alaster's knowledge, others considered the whole affair as a mystification (or hoax,) anti others that there had been, if . not a direct imposture, yet at least an adventure .undertaken at ran d om . All agreed in one point t namely, that the Viceroy had made to the 'Pa. ' pal See the formal, an d repeated proposal to send young Kaschlour to Egypt in the above -mentioned quality. Whin the latter on his return landed, not in Roman or other neigh. horning port, but (what was then considered as singular) at' Genoa, it was reported that on hi s return to Rome he had been arrested and confined in the Castle of St. Angelo. This wa in October or November, .1825. Since that time the matter was no farther spoken of. All ut once we now learn, that on the 3d of this month Enschiour was removed from .the Castle of St. Angelo, (where he was confined in the sanie apartMents Cagliostro once occupied), brought befbre the tribu. nal of the Inquisition, and contkinned to death. It i s sa id t h at he' fainted away on hearing his sentence. As soon as he came to himself, it was signified to him that his Holiness, in compas sion to his youth (lie is said to be under 30 years of .age), and 'especially not to give again a public example 9f severity, com muted the punishment of death into imprisonment for life... Four pupils of the Propaganda were present ut the passin g of the sentence. I t i s a ffi rme d that Kaschrour will be confined - for the remainder of his life, in one of the prisons of the imprisi. don. Nothing has transpired with respect to: his crime. An other cruel murder has been committed. A journeyman car. penter had an illicit connection with the wife of a stone-mason, who, it appears, bad some ot h er lovers. (in the .morning of the fith of this .month, he appointed to meet her 'at a coffee-house, Site'had scarcely entered, when the monster rushed upon her with a knife, and, at one blow, ripped open her body quite across. She lived - just long enough to receive absolution from a priest,,whose hand she pressed, being unable to speak, as a sign that she forgave her, murderer. What adds to the enormity of the crime is, that the woman is said to have been in the Gth month of her pregnancy. Thi s horrible deed has again read such consternation in the city, that even the most indifferent among the inhabitants are convinced of the necessity of checking the wickedness of the populace of Rome by more severe measures. It is drought that th e o bj ect cannot be better attained than by the establishment of a military iii. bunal, which should pass sentence of death within 24 hours on every convicted mur derer.—(Supplement to Allgenteine ;lei. tang, Mardi 7.) Marten . Bfausche Nude!, the s wi n dl er , and M captain of AYENCE, banditti, no6to rim In all Germany, Switzerland, Alsace, and Lorraine, h as been brought to the Court of Assizes here, and after a trial, which occupied several days, condemned to death. His remarkably tine and expressive countenance has excited much interest for him, especially among the women. His agility anti almost supernatural strength are no less distinguished than his corm. tenance and figure. The indictment recites, among other adventures of. his, that he let himself down from a prison at Bremen three stories high, and loaded with irons, swain through the Weser, that when in the middle of the river he received a musket shot in his leg, and yet escaped. The exe. cution of thi s man, whose crimes are innumerable, was fixed for to.day, but, has be en put off, to avoid, for the present, the collecting of a great crowd of people—considerable irritation prevailing at present, on account of an unhappy event, when a custoin-house officer shot a man dead who was passing the bridge and did not immediately stand still when he called to him. He was a citizen of .31ayence, father of a numerous family:. The people shackedthe Cush:Up-house officers, and the numerous Prussian and Austrian garrison had • much trouble in restoring' tranquillity.—ln the speech of the City Procurator on the trial of Nudel, there was some interest ing information respecting the existence of all the robbers in Germany, drawn from authentic sources. The result is, that there are in Germany 16,000 robbers, of whom no less than 12,000 are Jews.—( Bremen Gazette, ilfareltll). THE FUNDS. Consols—Closed yesterday ,• After the Close - This morning opened - Notwithstanding the exposee of the Minister's intention of funding Exchequer Bills—the British Market is still flat, and will probably continue so, until suspense is relieved, by a public commu nication of the details of his plan. At present, the question is, in what fund the operation will take place. The prevalent opinion is in favour of the Four per Cents., but there is nothing beyond conjecture to warrant such conclusion. Consols began this morning at 77k, from which the price receded to 77—sellers. Subsequently they receded, and at 1 o'clock the quotation was 774 account.
